Define whether UBI Center takes institutional positions #107

Think tanks differ on whether they take institutional positions--and accordingly use statements like "we found" or "our results show" when describing work in the media, social media, etc.--or credit their scholars for their results. UBI Center should pick a camp and speak consistently based on the decision. So far it's been a mix, but probably a bit more on the institutional position side.

For example, CRFB takes institutional positions (and also often doesn't list authors on blog posts), while AEI credits scholars.
